17. SANYO has now succeeded in implementing its Electrolyzed Water technology cultivated in SANYO's Water purifying bacteria-removing device into the Fully-Automatic "Wash with Ultrasonic Waves and Electrolysis" washing machine. By combining Electrolyzed Water's dirt dissolving and bacteria-removing properties with the cleansing power of Ultrasonic Wave technology SANYO has brought to realization the World's first "Zero-Detergent course" washing machine.

59. LENS ABRASIVE BLOCK Lens Polishing Problem: As lens is being polished, heat is generated. The heat causes optical properties to be degraded. Current cooling methods are ineffective because it is difficult to achieve uniform cooling at each abrasive particle.
60. Abrasive + Ice - Inventive Principle ‘Phase Transition’ A good solution to this process problem What must be improved? SPEED What is stopping us? TEMPERATURE The limiting contradiction is speed versus temperature . Taking Out Mechanics Substitution Phase Transition Flexible Shells & Thin Films The CREAX Contradiction Matrix recommends following principles for solving this contradiction: LENS ABRASIVE + ICE

62. “ This object is achieved in accordance with the principles of the present invention in a radio-frequency shield of the type initially described, having the additional feature of separating slots introduced into the end regions being transverse slots that are arranged at the axially inwardly disposed end of the separating slots. The separating slots extending essentially only in the axial direction and the capacitive coupling of the micro-strips separated by the separating slots relative to one another causes the shielding effect to remain constantly good regardless of the type of radio-frequency antenna utilized. As a result of the transverse slots, eddy currents flowing in the circumferential direction can no longer penetrate as far into the edge-side micro-strips. The flow field becomes more uniform. Local increases of the eddy current density at the end of the outer longitudinal slots, and thus local heating are greatly reduced. ” Radio-frequency shield for a diagnostic magnetic resonance apparatus Thing to be improved:- OBJECT AFFECTED HARMFUL FACTOR Thing that gets worse:- TEMPERATURE Matrix recommends:- Blessing in Disguise, Homogeneity, Parameter Changes, Taking Out Siemens used:- 31 Porous Materials (‘Holes’)
